Jean Mahie Jewelry

French

Bold, vibrant and full of life, the remarkably ebullient gold jewelry of French brand Jean Mahie has dazzled collectors from the moment it first appeared. Featuring motifs derived from classical mythology and ancient architecture, Jean Mahie earrings, necklaces, bracelets and other accessories are characterized by sinuous lines and simple, primordial shapes.  

Painter and sculptor Jacline Mazard was at loose ends with her art career when her father-in-law, sculptor and goldsmith Jean-Marie Mazard, recognized her potential and invited her to join him in his workshop in the South of France. Self-taught, Jean-Marie Mazard shared his love of working with gold with his daughter-in-law, and the pair began collaborating in 1969 under the name Jean Mahie. 

A shrewd businessman, Jean-Marie Mazard focused on efforts to market the pair’s striking creations, and with the support of a public relations executive, early publicity promptly resulted in acclaim and wide recognition. Their work eventually fit snugly alongside the candy-colored gems and bohemian fashions of the late 1960s and 1970s, an era of free expression and fascination with cultures around the world that yielded vibrant jewelry with global influences.

Working with 22-karat yellow gold, Jean Mahie’s founders produced bold designs that drew on architecture and artifacts of Mediterranean history, inspired by Jacline’s childhood, which took shape not far from the ruins of ancient Carthage in Tunisia. Their textured, sculptural link necklaces, cuff bracelets, dangle earrings and other pieces garnered praise from the likes of Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels, both of which engaged in partnerships with Jean Mahie. Neiman Marcus later became the sole retailer of the brand’s jewelry.

Jean-Marie Mazard passed away in 1994. Jacline Mazard now designs alongside her son and daughter in their studio in New York City.

By Jean Mahie

Located in Tampa, FL

A handmade Jean Mahie bracelet composed of textured sculptural links in 22 karat gold. This Jean Mahie bracelet captures the artist’s distinctive hand forged aesthetic, defined by richly textured surfaces and organic, asymmetric forms. Crafted in 22 karat yellow gold, the bracelet is composed of individually sculpted links joined by Mahie’s characteristic handmade oval connectors, creating a rhythmic, tactile design that feels both ancient and modern. The high-karat gold offers a deep, warm hue that accentuates the irregular contours of each link. As with all of Mahie’s work, the piece reflects a highly personal artistic process: modeled, carved, and finished by hand rather than cast from molds. The result is a bracelet with a strong sculptural presence that remains comfortable on the wrist, as shown in the accompanying wear image.

They first began combining their artistic talents in 1969, working from a studio in Mouans-Sartoux in the South of France, and launched their jewellery line the following year. Neither was formally trained and both preferred to work with 22ct gold in order to realise their unique style that embodied primitive form, motifs and techniques. Everything they made was entirely hand crafted with Jacline often drawing inspiration from her memories of growing up near the ancient ruins of Carthage in Tunisia. Their bold, imaginative, exotic pieces in richly hued yellow gold fitted perfectly with the bohemian fashions...

Located in Beverly Hills, CA

This Jean Mahie 22k gold bracelet is a great piece combining a minimalistic style with the luxury aesthetic of 22k gold. About the brand Jean Mahie jewelry brand founded in 1969 by Jacline Nataf Mazard and her father-in-law Jean Marie Mazard. Their partnership is often called symbiotic. Jacline recalled the beginning of their artistic adventure as an unconventional way to get into the jewelry business. Since then, Jean Mahie history has been a history of growth and recognition. And not only by devoted customers but also by such famous makers as Van Cleef & Arpels and Cartier. Neiman Marcus began to sell Mahie pieces four decades ago as an exclusive retailer. Nowadays Jacline is still making her one of a kind fine jewelry. In the modern world Jean Mahie 22k gold jewelry is famous for its bold design and architectural shapes.s. About estate jewelry Buying jewelry online might be challenging. The quality of the making has not got better over the time while the design is getting more and more generic. Add ever rising prices and you could end up with not finding anything suitable. To purchase a high-quality jewelry piece for an obtainable price consider buying estate items. Quality vs Quantity Estate pieces mostly belong to the era when jewels were handmade and not mass produced. There were simply less jewelry makers at that time and they cared about their reputation. Opposed to the current fast fashion approach, life pace was in general slower. That allowed makers to take more time to craft a truly quality piece. Fair price vs Overpriced Designer pieces aka signed pieces can cost multiple times more than their unsigned equivalents. We pay not only for an item itself but also for the brand advertising campaigns and all the buzz the name is creating. Prices for estate jewelry form differently and mostly depend on the cost paid by a seller. A pre-owned Bulgari ring and a brand-new Bulgari piece have a very appealing price difference. Ask your local jewelry store about a retail price of the desired piece and you’d be pleasantly surprised. True value vs Seasonal rush Pre-owned jewelry retains its value. Over the time it gets rare and more expensive. Think purchasing a new car that loses its value right after you left your dealer versus buying a vintage vehicle. At Nadine Krakov Collection...
